Know before you buy
Wucai lao duan ni is a porous purple clay that absorbs the oils and aromas of the tea over time. With consistent use, the teapot will develop a seasoned patina, which can subtly enhance the flavor profile of the specific tea type you brew in it.
Because Yixing clay is porous and retains flavors, it is best to dedicate this teapot to one specific category of tea, such as Oolong, Pu-erh, or black tea. Using it for multiple, vastly different tea types may lead to flavor crossover.
The 14-hole mesh filter is designed to provide a smooth, consistent flow while effectively catching tea leaves. It is particularly well-suited for traditional loose-leaf teas, ensuring your cup remains clear of debris.
Never use soap or detergents, as the clay will absorb them and ruin future brews. Simply rinse the teapot with hot water after each use and allow it to air dry completely with the lid off to prevent any musty odors.
Fully handmade means the teapot was shaped by a skilled artisan using traditional tools rather than being cast in a mold. This results in slight, unique variations in the finish and structure, which are considered hallmarks of authentic Yixing craftsmanship.
